I'm sure there'll be a lot of interest in the morning with the celebrity endorsement & photo shoot.....
I'm sure Whisper will be on his best behaviour  (just jealous I won't be there to "help")

Saw the boat yesterday on my way out of the show. Looks great well done to everyone who's put so much time, effort & expense ;-)
It's nice to see it had already got some good bidding going on & will sell for a good price after all it's not just any old boat!
Be nice if it got some coverage on BBC South Today news or ITV Meridian news but I'm sure that has been thought of..

Trust me we have been down every avenue, you can't believe how many sharks are out there trying to extract funds from you, a bit like us really, but we are doing it for a good cause and all the funds we collect go to Macmillian

Had to run back for a radio interview! Started to tell our story and the lady burst into tears!
Gave her a massive cuddle and got her a cup of tea, the man on the food stand gave me a ticket and said "I will give you free food and drinks till the end of the show"!!!
Went back to the boat and told our story, the recording goes out to all the radio stations to use!!!

Are these photos going to the national press ?
I have a press team at work and could ask them to push them to the papers for publication if you think that would be good.
Of course its up to the papers to take them up, but we can push them.
